In Alexander et al. v. FBI, et al., the case commonly known as “Filegate,” Judicial Watch represented plaintiffs from the Reagan and George H.W. Bush administrations who claim that the Clinton administration gained illegal access to their FBI files.  Hillary Clinton is mentioned specifically as a defendant in the case.  The FBI and White House are being sued for breach of the Federal Privacy Act while other individuals, including Mrs. Clinton, are being sued for invasion of privacy.  Below you will find the depositions of three of the most notable figures in the case. 

James Carville was the former campaign manager and political consultant to President Clinton.  He is questioned in this case regarding his knowledge of White House activity that involved the files in question.   George Stephanopoulos was a senior political advisor to President Clinton as well as his press secretary and communications director at various times in the administration.  He was also questioned about his knowledge of Filegate.  Linda Tripp, a White House employee during both the Bush and Clinton administrations, provided Judicial Watch with perhaps its best evidence of all.  It is Tripp that reveals a direct connection between Mrs. Clinton and the illegally obtained files.
